Since the development of different vaccines and their supply globally, most countries have developed their own strategies to effectively provide sufficient doses for their population and start the vaccination process with the best outcomes. In this perspective, we review the African Union vaccination strategy by exploring the implementation of the strategy and its outcomes. We report on the strategy initiatives, vaccines distribution, administration, and the impact on new COVID-19 cases in African countries.</p> African Union COVAX COVID-19 Vaccination strategy Vaccines Dewey 613 66 Institut de santé globale 22A1 false 907 Groupe Flahault Antoine 945 https://africacdc.org/covid-19-vaccination/ https://ourworldindata.org/covid-vaccinations?country=OWID_WRL/ Epidemiologia 2 4 b09695a4-1322-4f0a-bfe4-a546cd8d6905 Article (Published version) Public Article-scientifique-from-unpaywall.pdf 4389892 application/pdf CC BY-4.0 e923b3cfea04d2f3e3caee985cb21251d6c82bae796b38e6e1bb14d0374c0190 openAccess Faculté de médecine / Section de médecine clinique / Département de santé et médecine communautaires / Institut de santé globale
